The need of barrier layer such as SiO2 for carbon nanotubes (CNTs) growth limits their performance in electronic applications. In this study, conductive carbon/metal (carbon/cobalt—C:Co) composite films with the same metal content, but different sp2/sp3 ratios, were deposited using dual-source filte...
